Chance · Answer 1

It's an error about wrong subject. I mean that here hallway is the subject that finished. The right one is I finished the paintings and placed them in the hallway.

Jamal · Answer 2

The type of error in this sentence is reference, the clause that I finished refers to the hallway the way this sentence is written, when it should refer to the paintings.

This is the way this sentence is supposed to be written to correct the error:

The paintings that I finished are in the hallway.
